Welcome to the Website of the 28th North Gloucestershire Regiment of Foot.
We are a small friendly group of
enthusiasts dedicated to re-creating
the lives of British Napoleonic
soldiers, their wives and children
and the various civilians that
followed them around the world
during this turbulent period of
history. There is no age limit and if
you feel that portraying a soldier on
active service is not for you there are
other roles either military or civilian
that can be portrayed.
We are based largely in the West
Country but we welcome interest
from anywhere in the UK. As a
trained soldier you can expect to
wear the famous red jacket and be
taught how to use the equipment of
the period including the legendary
Brown Bess musket. Full training and
help to obtain the correct uniform
and equipment will be given.
During the Summer we attend living
history events, battle re-enactments
and other events such as balls and
dances mostly at weekends and at
various locations throughout the UK
and Europe.
If you have a genuine interest in this
period and would like to find out
more please contact us on
